When I do Flask run, it shows error : ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'werkzeug.contrib'. Can anyone help me with this?

Question

the exact error I get is :

flask.cli.NoAppException: While importing "application", an ImportError was raised:Traceback      (most recent call last):

I am trying to import sessions from Flask

Werkzeug 1.0.0 has removed deprecated code, including all of werkzeug.contrib. You should use alternative libraries for new projects. werkzeug.contrib.session was extracted to secure-cookie.

If an existing project you're using needs something from contrib, you'll need to downgrade to Werkzeug<1:

pip3 install Werkzeug<1
